Since she was born Daddy has (not so) secretly hoped she would turn out to be a fish, like him. A couple of days ago she passed her swimming diploma A exam and wants to go further, in her words “for B, and C, and snorkelling and everything else there is”. Daddy happy.

Since she was born Mama has (not so) secretly hoped she would turn out to be a bookworm, like her. When asked what she would like to get from us as a gift for her swimming diploma, she chose this.

Last night she went to bed earlier than usual and took the book with to read. When I went to her room an hour later she was still reading. Mama happy.
